Facing an immortal opponent.
Unohana was more interested than ever.
Even if Mazuru is not Zaraki Kenpachi but just relying on this characteristic, as well as Mazuru's kendo accomplishments, he is a worthy opponent.
Unohana held her Zanpakuto, which was constantly seeping blood, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional in his heart. Unexpectedly, after so many years, she drew her sword again and used her Bankai but the opponent she faced is not Zaraki but Mazuru.
'It's great to be alive.'
It is precisely because she is alive that she can meet so many interesting opponents.
Unohana attacked Mazuru again.
After activating Bankai, her Zanpakuto has undergone a huge change, not only the sword in her hand has blood oozing out,the most intuitive change is that the blade became a blood blade that can be extended and bent, just like Ichimaru Gin's Shinsō, but unlike Shinsō which simply becomes stronger and kills the enemy through rapid expansion and contraction, the sword in Unohana's hand can effectively help her perform various sword skills.
From the hands of Unohana, all kinds of exquisite skills are started showing, and because of the particularity of her Zanpakuto after its Bankai, her skills are not limited by her sword's shape or size.
One after another kendo techniques were used by Unohana in succession. Thousand years ago, she fought countless powerful enemies, and those enemies killed by her had all their lifetime-worth kendo attainments learned by her.
It is precisely because she claims to have mastered all the sword styles in the world that she named herself "Yachiru" and anyone who is injured by her sword will instantly dissolve by the corrosive blood on the blade.
(T.L Note: At first I used the spelling "Yachiryu" as "ryu" stands for sword but the wiki spelling is "Yachiru" so I used that)
After realizing the ability of Unohana's Zanpakuto, although Mazuru is basically immortal in this space, he still feels a little amazed in his heart because he only knows a little bit about the plot of the Thousand Year Blood War, Mazuru doesn't know too many details except that Unohana is the First Generation Kenpachi. It is also the first time he has seen Unohana's Bankai.
Apparently her Shikai's ability is to change her Zanpakuto into a huge flattened monocular flying creature that can heal the wounds of those who are swallowed by it but after unleashing its Bankai, it's like a completely different Zanpakuto. It becomes a sword born purely for killing.
However, if you think about it carefully, the two seemingly unrelated forms actually have some things in common.
When shikai is activated, the secretion of the one-eyed creature can heal people, and after activating Bankai, the corrosive blood on the sword can dissolve the enemies it cuts.
(T.L Note: Don't know about that but I think her shikai is such so that she can heal people and bring them to their peak condition before she fights them, after all Zanpakuto reflects its user's soul. As for her Bankai it's self-evident)
Of course, Mazuru not only personally experienced her Zanpakuto's attacks, but also fought back after Unohana displayed her outstanding sword skills.
Mazuru's sword technique originated from Hueco Mundo, which was honed in actual combat. Later, after his Zanpakuto awakened, he fought against Chi no Kawa in the Zanpakuto space day and night.
Perhaps when it comes to skills, he does not have as many sword skills or arts as Unohana, but his slashing skills are purely for killing.
At one point it caused a serious injury to Unohana.
When Unohana's sword killed him (he won't die, just re-condense his body), his sword also injured Unohana seriously. At first, Mazuru was still considering whether to heal Unohana's wounds, but soon, he realized that there was no need to do so.
Unohana was a grandmaster in Kaidō, the injury Mazuru caused her, was quickly healed by her using Kaidō.
(T.L Note: She can also heal using Minazuki without using Kaidō)
In the blood-red space, two figures flickered past one after another, and the two swords kept colliding with each other. Except for Unohana who used the healing Kidō "Kaidō" to heal her wounds, the two did not use any Hadō and Bakudō, except for Shunpo, they only fought using sword techniques.
At the beginning, Unohana relied on her superb skills to dissolve Mazuru's body into blood-mist several times. However, each time, in just a short while, Mazuru was reborn again. Even though Unohana healed her injuries with Kaidō, the haori of the Fourth Division on her body became tattered during the fight.
(T.L Note: I think the author is unaware that Unohana's Bankai can heal wounds without using Kaidō)
It's hard to imagine that Unohana, the captain of the Fourth Division, who is usually gentle, will become such a mess. What's even more unbelievable is that the smile that usually hangs on her face has also changed. It turned into a somewhat blood-thirsty and ferocious smile.
Unohana felt better than ever.
This carelessness way of fighting is different from Zaraki. Zaraki is really strong, but even so, if the current Unohana fights against him, before the opponent has recovered all his strength, she has to restrain herself to avoid directly killing him.
Kaidō exists to heal wounds not to revive the dead but facing Mazuru, that's not the case. Because of the particularity of his Bankai, Mazuru is basically immortal. Of course, even such an ability may have the possibility of being cracked, but Unohana didn't think about cracking it. Compared to cracking this seemingly invincible ability, fighting Mazuru who has this ability is the real joy.
"What a pleasure!"
A heartfelt exclamation was uttered by Unohana.
The Zanpakuto in her hand suddenly became longer, and slashed towards Mazuru at an extremely strange angle. Before, she used a similar method to kill Mazuru once, but this time it was different. Mazuru easily blocked her sword.
Unohana is extremely familiar with the skill Mazuru used to block her sword. It was a technique she displayed in the fight with Mazuru earlier.
"It's getting more and more interesting."
Unohana murmured softly.
The attack-style changed again, and a brand-new sword technique was used by Unohana. As Unohana expected, after fighting for a while, the sword techniques displayed by Mazuru were no longer his own technique, but Unohana's. He is learning her sword techniques.
After Unohana realized this, she didn't point it out. On the contrary, more and more techniques were being used by her, and she let Mazuru learn them.
In just a few moments, Mazuru had displayed nine sword techniques learned from Unohana.
Unohana claims to have mastered all the sword techniques in the world, so she is named Yachiru Unohana.
Mazuru at this moment, if he learns from Unohana and named himself like this, maybe he can also be called Yachiru Mazuru.
